Chapter XXIV

After the tiles on the roof of Si'a were removed, the whirlpools, beams, columns, and columns below were all exposed. The Chu Palace system is customized, these load-bearing timber is either nanmu or huangqi, and the worst is also cypress, except for the cypress wood, which is softer, and the rest are shipbuilding materials. Looking at these good woods, Gong Yindao was full of smiles, and also looked at these woods, and Gong Yijian was full of regret.

In the battle of Lianheng, if the Chu State wants to achieve a decisive victory, it is necessary to build the three-pulp war boat as quickly as possible, even if it uses wet wood that has not dried regardless of the life of the war boat, it is not as fast as demolishing the palace tower, these are ready-made wood. As a result, the layered platform, fishing platform, small song platform, five music platform, nine-fold platform, and Jingtai in the garden...... All within the scope of demolition, some other palaces and buildings outside the palace also need to be demolished, including the Yangyuntai where Mi Xuan lived.

Unlike shipbuilding, armor-making, and man-made Yin Dao, and unlike Gongyi Jian, who built and dismantled it with his own hands, Zuo Tu Zhaoxiao's gaze was a little complicated. To this day, he felt that he had been caught up in a torrent of excitement and tumbling, and he did not know where it was going.

"Ling Yin invites Zhaozuo to the mansion." A servant came quickly and asked Zhao Huang to go to Ling Yin's mansion.

"Got it." It is not surprising that Yin Xiang invited Zhao Huang. In the entire Chu State, Nao is cunning in charge of the country, he is in charge of the palace, and matters involving the whole country need to be discussed by two people.

"Wang Ling, Yushi kills people and does not die......" When Zhao Huang arrived, Ling Yin's mansion was full of important ministers, and as soon as he sat down, Nao slyly read out a flying news from Chen Ying, and the king did something earth-shattering.

"How can you kill someone without dying?!" Zhen Yin Zimo's body trembled, and he almost jumped up. "Why did the king give this order?"

The important ministers present all looked at Nao Cun, and Nao Cunning smiled bitterly, "Why do you bother to ask the king what he said? Today's invitation is to discuss the feasibility of this order? If so, it should be decreed throughout the country, and if not, it should not be ......"

"Never!" Zi Mo looked at everyone. "It is an ancient custom for a murderer to die, and the people are accustomed to it. If you don't kill people, and everyone kills people, won't my Chu country be in chaos? Please order Yin to advise the king and take back his fate. ”

"The death of a murderer is a custom of the Zhou, not the custom of the Yin people, nor the customs of the Chu people." In addition to the historians, the one who knows the history best is the Taibu Guanji. There is no so-called three-generation system, some are just legends of the literati. "In the past, when my Chu people killed people, warriors were not allowed to die, and they could pay off cattle, sheep and horses. Today's Yushi kills people and does not die, which is the ancestor of my Chu people. ”

"In the old days? Dare to ask Taibu, when was the old time? Zi Mo asked.

"In the old days, before the founding of the kingdom." Guan Ji raised his head, it was more than 800 years ago, and the Chu people had not yet moved to Jingshan.

"Before the founding of the country?!" Zi Mo's eyes widened, "Before the founding of the country, I and I were not Chu people, but Jing Man. ”

"What about Jing Man?" Sikong Tang Miao didn't like Zi Mo's tone, he confirmed that Xiong Jing was the Saint King's incarnation, so he naturally supported Xiong Jing everywhere. "In the past, it was a small Jing Man, and today it is thousands of miles of Chu State. Why can't I be a Chu person, but not others? ”

"I don't know." Zimo refused to answer the question. "I only know that the murderer dies, this is an ancient custom, and if you don't follow it, the whole country will be in chaos."

"The king's meaning ......" Nao Wei coughed, the information transmitted by Feixun was limited, and it was impossible for Xiong Jing to elaborate on his meaning, everything could only rely on Nao Sly's guess. In the future, the state of Chu will be the country of the strong, and although the strong will not die when they kill people, they will receive the retribution of the deceased for ten generations. There is no queen, no report, this is the weak. The weak eat the strong, the survival of the fittest, the world is like this, why can't Chu be like this? This is the king's word. What do you think? ”

Nao Cunning finally finished reading Feixun, Song Yu sighed, he knew very early that this student had barbarian thoughts, but he didn't expect that he really issued a barbarian decree. Doctor Sanlu also sighed and said, "This is not benevolent. Heaven has the virtue of a good life, and the earth has the thickness of loads. The king's order, treating all things as if they were dogs, will be criticized by the Confucian and Mo families. Lu Di are all Confucian, Song and Mo people, the two places are half of my Chu country, if the people complain, it is not good for the country. ”

"Cai Di, Chen Di, even if it is my Chu people, there are many people who practice Confucianism and Mo, if you open a foreign court, this order will be refuted." Zhao Huang did not express his position until this time, he was thinking of the foreign dynasty. As soon as the foreign dynasty opened, the national policy was not decided by a few people like now.

"However, the people of Confucianism and ink are not people who attack and love, and if they become the country, the country will perish." Yin Luyangjun of the Great Sima Mansion also sighed. The king's strong man is the king, and he can accept the survival of the fittest the most, not only accepting, but even taking it as a guideline. Thinking that all the people in the Kaiwai Dynasty were this kind of people, he sighed deeply.

"What does the master think?" Nao looked at Song Yu slyly, everyone spoke, but Song Yu was silent.

"The king's order will not be accepted by the common people, especially the scholars. They are the most jealous of martial artists, and often use the former monarch Zhuang Wang Wu Nai to ridicule and ridicule the martial artists. If a man kills people and does not die, will their lives not be guaranteed, and they will not be able to live in fear? "Song Yu expected a scene, that is, tens of thousands of scholars came to Yingdu to petition." The trouble of this order is on the common people, and if the common people do not obey it, what should they do? ”

"If the common people are not satisfied, just kill them!" Sure enough, it is the king's die-hard loyalty, although Lu Yangjun does not know the king's intentions, the choice he can make is completely consistent with the king. "My Chu people have expanded the land for 5,000 miles, is it benevolent and righteous?"

"It's not kind." Zi Mo shivered, and his eyes squinted at Lu Yangjun a few times.

"What if you are unkind! When did the first king attack the city and pull out the city? Lu Yangjun glared, and Zimo quickly withdrew his gaze. Those who do not obey the king's orders will be killed, and it will be seen who disobeys! 30,000 kings, 10,000 honorable soldiers, and people who are good at fighting and dying in the army, they are not courteous to the scholars and the common people on weekdays. But the battle was fought by warriors. The people who shed blood for the Chu State were ridiculed and despised by the literati and the countrymen, this is a great inhumanity!

Ling Yin must not only look at the people's hearts, but also look at the morale of the people. If the honorable soldier kills people and does not die, and the sergeants and soldiers of the army compete to be the honorable soldier, the combat strength of our Chu army will be very different from the past. Don't forget, the big war is coming, if you don't treat the soldiers well and treat the common people well, the country will not be far away! ”

The hall discussion ended quickly, and Lu Yangjun's sentence of the war played a decisive role immediately. It's just that after everyone left, Taibu Guan Ji was still there.

"What do you say?" Nao Cunning already had a plan in his heart, and he thought that watching the season had something else.

"The day before yesterday, the king may have an accident." As soon as Guan Ji opened his mouth, it was terrifying.

Nao was shocked and asked urgently: "What are the signs, but Chen Ying is not guarding?" The King ......"

"Definitely. Woe or rise within the walls. Guan Ji shook his head, although he couldn't predict anything accurately, he could vaguely guess something.

"Xiao Qiang?" Nao Cunning thought of the palace and the Xiong in the palace. If the disaster really started within Xiao Qiang, it must be Xiong Qiang, and only he is qualified to replace the king.

*

"Hit, hit me hard!" Chen Ying was sleeping in the Ming Hall, Xiong Jing had a fierce face, and was ordering the temple people to whip Chen Ao fiercely. "As a meritorious person, he actually disarmed and surrendered, and was killed, is this the honor of a meritorious scholar?!"

"The king is angry, we don't know ......" Chen He fell to the ground in fear, he thought that the king was angry that Chen Ao killed others by mistake, but he didn't know that the king was angry that Chen Ao surrendered and was killed.

"The king is angry." The other honorable scholars of Chen County all bowed down to bed, and the reason for the king's anger surprised them. If this is the case, won't the honorable people be able to fight against the county court in the future?

"It is an honor to die in battle, and no matter who dies at the hands of anyone, it is the work of slaves and sluts to be killed." Xiong Jing hated it very much, and he even hated it a little perversely. "Master, master, you have to be the master of the villain, you have to be the master of the villain......"

Xiong Jing learned the tone of the slaves, vividly. "This is a slave, the truth is all from people, everywhere inferior, like to the strong government as the master of the parents, do not pretend to make you honorable, give you a great sword, tell you to swear to defend the honor, that is, you are to be a person, not to make you a timid slave vassal. As a celebrity, afraid of heaven and earth, afraid of ghosts and gods, afraid of adults, but when do you want to be afraid of the government? Afraid of power? Where's your knife? Are your knives for killing chickens?! ”

Xiong Jing patted a few cases, with a tone of hatred that iron is not made of steel, and the people who are honored are ashamed of themselves, if they are Chen Ao, they will probably be arrested by the government and killed.

"Great King......" The muffled snort of the execution outside ended, and the temple people came in to inquire to see what to do with Chen Ao.

"Let's go down." In the land of the Chen Ying Plain, the sleeping is like Shouying, and the platform is three meters high. Xiong Jing went out of the bed, and the honorable scholars also followed him out of the lower steps, and on the next side of the stairs was Chen Ao, who had just finished the execution, and he endured the pain and bowed to the ground, and his side was the summoned palace armor and sanitation, they were also honorable scholars.

"Excuse me, stand up." Chen Ao spent a few days in the county jail, covered in a foul smell, and Xiong Jing stood in front of him with bated breath.

"The minister is guilty, and he dare not rise." The execution was at the bottom of the stairs, and Chen Ao heard what the king said in the Ming Hall.

"You were not born as a minister, and it is common sense to be afraid of the government, and you will not be forgiven." Xiong Jing said, "Get up." ”

"King Xie." Chen Ao finally got up, he was pumping his back buttocks, but even so, he still tried to stand up straight.

Some words ...... "Xiong Jing did not completely descend the steps, but stood on the steps, and the honorable people all looked up to him like gods." It's not good to say it bluntly, because it hurts people's hearts, but these words have to be said, because they have existed between heaven and earth since ancient times. The literati are afraid to talk about it, how can we and other warriors turn a blind eye and see it without saying anything.

The law of all things lies in competition, the superior wins and the inferior are eliminated, the fittest survive and the contradict die, although people are the primates of all things, they also do this. At the time of Yin Shang, all the countries in the world, at the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, more than 100 countries were sealed, and today, only seven countries remain, which are all competitive. However, so far, the worse the world, the more evil human nature, the ancient courage and martial arts are gone, and the deception is prevalent. Today, the Qin State is the hegemon, is the Qin State really superior to other countries and suitable for other countries?
